What's This? Water from the Sky?

Rain..you gotta be kidding...I've forgotten what that's like...Well I was reminded down in North Carolina...repeatedly. Anyway, my trusty rain gauge says 1 1/4 inch in Red Wing. I checked the Verm on the way home and this is what I saw. If we get the rain they predict for tonight then the Verm will have a little action on it. Cats and dogs baby! Let it pour! If you're really bored click on the middle photo to enlarge and see if you can spot the ducks...there's two.

Nora these are amazing photos! And these pictures of the water in North Carolina... I've driven to Charlotte from Chattanooga on off roads, and seen kayakers on these gorgeous waters, they actually had made me think of you!

And on your about you area... the agate collecting. I remember some of the ones you'd shown me. Seeing all this is a great feeling and memory in the best and needed time. :)

About Me

I started sea kayaking in 2002 and quickly progressed to whitewater. I am an ACA Whitewater Instructor and I volunteer teach through Rapids Riders. Between kayaking and surfing I can see why many people have spent their lives beach bumming. If I could I'd become a river gypsy full time. There's nothing I love more than to be on a river. I travel and love to take photos of people in their "rock star" moments. I have one really great son, Shane.
Winter comes and I snow kite, cross country ski, Downhill ski, Telemark ski, rock and ice climb and mountain bike. Always looking for the next adventure whether it's in my back yard or miles distant...when you look you will usually find one. I'm also an agate nut!
My Blog is a way for me to share my paddling life with my non-paddling friends and family.
